So…I might have a sequin problem…and a vest problem…or maybe we can avoid calling them problems and just enjoy these projects. The only one that was for me (for now, at least…it IS a sample) is the mustard yellow wool vest. It’s so nice and provides just enough warmth for what I need indoors.
I also wanted to update you on my freelance life. The majority of you know that a month ago, I went rogue. I quit my job at the dress shop and decided to work for myself. It’s been going well, or as one would expect. It’s not perfect, and I could use more clients, but over all, for the first month, I couldn’t be happier to be doing this. I’m learning a lot about boundaries with clients, how to balance life and work, and how to keep my finances afloat.
I wouldn’t be here without all the craziness I’ve had to deal with in the last 3 years and the saying that “what doesn’t kill you makes you stronger” is so true in my case.
I’ve added a link to my Facebook page in case you want to see more of what I’ve been working on! Go check it out and have a great holiday season! Enjoy the sparkles and the thigh slits and all that’s magical in the world!
You are very talented artist. Making special clothing for special people. Too cool.
Thank you so much, Phyllis! 💕
Yes Leila!! So happy for your freelance ventures x
Thank you so much!! 😘
Wonderful job with the star trek outfit! I have that pattern, but have never had the gumption to even make a muslin. Your version is perfect. Love the sparklies too!
Thanks! Crazy thing is that I didn’t have a pattern for that uniform jacket. Couldn’t find one so I just built it from scratch.
